I saw this movie before reading any reviews, and I thought it was very funny. I was very surprised to see the overwhelmingly negative reviews this film received from critics.

There seems to be an unwritten, but rigidly enforced rule in Hollywood these days, that every movie must be black even if it's not. No longer can you make a movie for white people, even if it's ostensibly a white movie ... it's just not pc. Like all bad "pc" movies made during the past 10 years, The Shrink Is In constantly assaults you with pounding RAP. Also very pc, it has a white lead with a black neighbor who is her best friend. And of course, there are black faces planted in almost every scene of the movie. If you can stand this cultural assault, you have to put up with an inane plot and marginal acting suitable for a Grade B chick flick. Which is what this woman-looking-for-love to mend a broken heart is.

I was flipping through channels one night and caught Courteney Cox and David Arquette in a movie together. Naturally since I love both of them (totally fell in love with them both in Scream but have been a fan of Courteney's since Ace Ventura) I decided to watch it. It was halfway over and I hate watching movies in the middle but I was compelled to watch it. I loved it! I immediately went out and bought myself a copy and watch it all the time. I watch it with friends who need a good laugh. This movie is so funny and cute and yes, predictable, but most romantic comedies are. I thought it was great and wish this at least would've gotten released in theaters. Oh well, rent or buy your own copy today and enjoy it at home!!!

I must say, even in only ten minutes into the movie, I fell in love with it. This is the best movie I have ever seen, and I've seen a lot. It was beyond humerous, entertaining, and enjoyable - what more can you ask for? The cast was also wonderful... who wouldn't love a Courteney and David movie? There is not one part where I was bored. It's a wonder why it never got released. Even in ten years I'll be watching this movie, marvling at the wonderfulness of it all. So, to sum it up: A must - see for anyone who wants to see a marvelous movie.

Courtney Cox, Carol Kane and David Arquette were all victims of a badly written movie. They shouldn't get Oscar credit but they definitely made the best out of a bad situation. The virgin writers still have a lot of work to do.This movie was a canned romance. "Loser" woman assumes role of attractive professional to get the guy who's "unavailable" either through another relationship or because he would normally be out of the woman's league, all the while ignoring the supposed "loser" who is in love with her. She finally sees the light and the "loser" turns out to be a great guy and much more perfect than the person she was chasing to begin with.How many times has that been done? There is a reason this movie didn't release to US theaters; The revenues would not have been substantial enough to cover the release costs. There's also a reason its only on Oxygen. Its awful. It even ends with a beach scene with the two "losers" together!!! Sweep Sundance and Cannes? You gotta be kidding me. Release in North America is no prerequisite to being selected for Cannes or Sundance. The only prerequisite is that there is some talent displayed. It has to hit on all fronts to be considered and this one only hit because the three stars were passable against almost insurmountable odds. Those odds being the script.
